my lips are shakin' my nails are bit off been a month since i've heard myself talk all the advantage this life's got on me picture a cup in the middle of the sea and i fight back in my mind never lets me be right i got memories i got sh** so much it don't show oh i walked the line when you held me in that night i walked the line when you held my hand that night an empty shells seem so easy to crack got all these questions don't know who i could even ask so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me and i stare you back oh blue eyes, i've seen it if just once i could feel love oh stare back at me, yeah.. but i walked the line when you held me in that night oh i walked the line when you held my hand that night oh i walked the line when you held me close that night i paid the price never held you in real life my lips are shakin'
